GDT: Playoff round - February 20 - USA vs Slovakia

[DeflatedFootball7]

What a collapse by Slovakia right in the opening minutes of the 2nd period, on many levels. 0-2 after only 2 minutes and 20 seconds. I guess that's it, goodbye, Korea!

That's on Cajovsky for throwing an elbow and Nagy for pretending to not see Zapolski seconds earlier.

nice looking power play - Terry is really good at getting shots off in tight spaces

Well, there were quite a handful of defensive breakdowns even prior to the first goal...

Viva estados unidos! Dos a cero!

 

[AveryQuietMan]

deja vu.....

dont screw the pooch usa!

 

[AmericanDream]

at worse this is another 4 minutes of clock kill - hopefully we snag 1 more and then just shut it down and trap like monsters

 

[AmericanDream]

Wiz is feeling it, keep dishing it his way - absolute cannon!

 

[AmericanDream]

this is honestly the first USA TEAM I have ever watch play and have no clue who half the faces are...

 

[SanDogBrewin]

Yah NBC show a split screen of Ice Dancing.

 

[BaileyMacTavish]

man, wish we could have potted at least one more during the 5 min major. Don't grip the sticks too tight.

 

[AmericanDream]

you know a penalty will be going the other way soon

 

[flemo]

At least Daloga has really good game till now

 

[DeflatedFootball7]

So...for those who were wondering why the US didn't just stack up the team with NCAA players...that's why.

Daloga making them look like Bantam scrubs on that last shift.

Edit: Also Daloga is 28? Jeepers the way he's played in this game and with his speed I was wondering if he had some NHL potential but he's a little "old".

 

[DC4MVP]

Pretty sure I want all college kids in 2022 if the NHL stays out of the Olympics.

Win or lose, I get more into the college kids and their stories than has-been or never-was NHLers

you must have missed the entire game, one shift isn't the reason - the college kids have dominated out here all night

 

[SanDogBrewin]

Sloppy sloppy US play.

 

[BaileyMacTavish]

Are we actually turtling with a 2-0 lead? Or what's going on?

Yeah, gonna go ahead and agree with Ferraro on this one. Greenway and Terry running around has caused three golden chances for the top Slovak line.

 

[AmericanDream]

big hit O'Neill!

yeah they ran around so much on the goal Donato scored - all 3 on the ice for that as well lol! Ferraro needs to open his eyes

 

[Teemu]

[SanDogBrewin]
